Yunokoya Onsen Ski Hotel

"We stayed at building #2 and #6 due to limited room availability during winter break. Rooms look totally different, one from 2010(#2) vs other from 1980(#6). They are priced as such, too. So set your expectations properly. Interestingly, #6 is easier to access Hiuchi-no-yu(onsen). #2 has good bathroom so you may want to avoid walking all the way to Hiuchi. Dining options are limited to resort itself and price is high to promote all-inclusive plans. Their in-house convenience shop charges extra for everything. This old style business model has to go. I wish the resort invites usual convenience stores like 7-11 so that guests will have access to better/cheaper breakfast. As a ski resort, Naeba is good. Everyone can access green course on top of gondola #2 which has fresh snow compared to usual resort’s green courses at the bottom of the mountain. And those folks can take gondola back down to skip blue courses. Though you have to pay little extra, I highly recommend trying Dragondra for its view and better snow in Tashiro area, at least one day."

"staff was really friendly "

"Overall enjoyed our stay but there were a few small things that could have made our stay more fulfilling. The entire place is made kids friendly which was really touching and is a welcome attitude given we are a family with 2 kids. The breakfast spread was quite good but had very limited vegetarian options - again the kids section there was really awesome! Rooms were quite clean but a bit smaller than anticipated, the toilet exhaust was a bit low or not working which made it a bit awkward. Loved the dedicated kids play area, gachapon area, vending machines, coin laundry, pool was paid, onsens were excellent and the halloween themed setup was cute. We were really relieved with the dedicated Lawson combini in their lobby!!! How cool is that :)"

"We enjoyed the rich history and culture of this resort. Every single staff member was excellent, warm, very helpful. Highly recommend everyone to experience this resort. We will stay again and again "

"Very good "
